Robust German-Style Pilsner. Brewed with German malts and hops for authentic flavor in larger amounts than a traditional Pilsner. The result is a full-flavored pale lager with a bready malt sweetness balanced by earthy and spicy hops. The perfect pilsner for the winter months

Poured from a cork and caged 750mL bottle into a SP stemmed bulb glass. Pours a fairly clearer straw yellow with a white foam cap of not quite a finger. Bready malts on the nose and the taste. Definitely not as easy drinking as your typical pils or lager at this abv but far from something that has to be sipped. Medium-full mouthfeel with a little lower carbonation to it as expected. Not bad by any means but also not something I would want all the time.

750 ml bottle from Rare Beer club. Pours golden with tall long- lasting white head. Aroma is of grassy hops and biscuit malt. Body is medium and crisp. Grassy, herbal hops, biscuit malt and species fill the mouth. Finish is long and hoppy. Great brew.

Imperial German lager has a golden hazy color with nice white fluffy foamy cap poured from corked 1 pint 9.4 oz bottle to pint glass. Malty bread on the nose with subtle hints of honey and spice. Good carbonization and feel. Nice robust German-Style Pilsner with nice 28 IBU bite and 6.9% ABV punch. Really good easy drinking Imperial Pilsner BJ’s beer club brew.
